comparable rooms, both for new buildings and
renovation work.
RV 2 ventilation units are intended exclusively for
domestic use or applications similar to domestic
use. Any other or additional use shall be deemed
improper.

Operation of the ventilation units is permitted:
• in exterior walls with a minimum wall thickness
of 365 mm and a maximum wall thickness of
500 mm with sufficient load-bearing capacity.
• in closed rooms (supply and exhaust air
rooms), space requirement/working space in
front of the unit 0.7 m.
• with pre-installation kit aligned exactly horizont-
ally and on the exterior wall: installation posi-
tion horizontal (parapet variant) or vertical (soffit
variants).
• with permanent electrical installation.

• in combination with a lab extraction unit.
• in combination with air-ventilated fireplaces
connected to an exhaust gas system, which it-
self has multiple connections.
• to convey chemicals or aggressive gases/va-
